Pretty underwhelming that their is no actual chocobo mounting animation. Just a whistle and *poof* you're on a chocobo. It would have been cool to see one of your retainers come riding by and dropping it off for ya. Maybe even grab something from your retainer while he's there...

Ya but then people would complain about how long said animation takes. >.>

Nothing SE will ever do in this game will stop people complaining . That's just being realistic.

  • People complained that there were no chocobos.

  • They get chocobos and then complain there is no animation.

  • They get the animation and then will complain that they think the animation is too long.

  • They get the animation time reduced and complain that it ruins the immersion.



They get the animation lengthened and then will complain that they think the animation is too long. They get the animation time reduced and complain that it ruins the immersion.

Kinda like how I heard someone complaining about how airships will only take seconds to to arrive at their destination, and that is was just too unrealistic... Really? I don't know, but I've never heard anyone say they liked the long *** airship wait/rides in FFXI, EVER. Please don't make me have go through those again.

There really is no satisfying some people.

EDIT:
And now that I think about it, I guess I'm one of them.

I really don't like the whole teleporting thing. Just the whole feature itself seems out of place in this game. It makes sense to be able to teleport between Aetherytes, you know, having to actually be standing next to one in order to teleport to another, and I'm cool with that. But the whole teleporting to any Aetheryte from the middle of nowhere just kinda seems dumb to me :/.... maybe it's just me. I think after adding Choco's and airships they should do some adjusting to the whole teleport thing.

Personally after months of practicing how to horde anima most of us will likely ride ship/air/choco everywhere except when instant travel is needed, that's my plan anyway. Teleportation has its place, but it just couldn't work as our only form of travel so think of the current anima system as a secondary form of transportation while air/land/sea will move to the forefront as our main means of travel.

can't wait :D i actually like how mobs can also hit you while you are riding. XI was a rare exception to that rule from MMOs. (it should stop them from restricting areas we can ride them)

and with the animation, i think this is enough. at first i was thinking it coulda been more... then 5 seconds later i thought it was best. when i call my chocobo it'll just be cause i wanna ride it and go XD how my character mounts the damn thing can remain a mystery

Considering the size of the maps I think they're too slow. The theme is also a little too much imo. I think they shouldn't have a theme when riding, cause it makes the zone more realistic. I don't wanna go riding through some scary zone and here carnival music...
